What is the "Ashcan School"?
The Ashcan School was an American art movement that began in the early 20th century, mainly in New York City. It is known for its focus on showing the harsh realities of city life. Main figures of the movement included Robert Henri, George Bellows, and John Sloan. Artists in this movement used bold brushwork and realistic details to show scenes of everyday life, often emphasizing the struggles and liveliness of city streets, working-class neighborhoods, and social issues. Their work aimed to provide an honest and realistic view of life, moving away from depictions that make it seem better or more desirable than it truly is, and offering a more genuine representation of modern city experiences.
